ST. VIATBUR'S COLLEGE
ST. VIATEUR'S COLLEGE
HISTORICAL
St. Viateur's College was founded in 1868 for the
higher education of Catholic youth. Six years later it re-
ceived its University charter from the State Legislature of
Illinois. By virtue of this charter the institution is em-
powered to grant degrees in Arts, Sciences, Letters and
Philosophy.
Buildings. In a few years the first college building
was inadequate to accommodate the large number of stu-
dents who came to avail themselves of the advantages which
St. Viateur's presented for a liberal education. To meet
this demand a new building was added in 1874 and an ad-
dition was made in 1879. Roy Memorial Chapel was built
in 1889 as a monument to the zeal of the first President,
Father Roy. The Gymnasium, a very spacious building,
was completed and equipped in 1901. Gradually the origi-
nal plan for a college that would accommodate five hundred
students took form, but just as its completion was about to
be reached, St. Viateur's was reduced a pile of crumbling
ruins by the fire which occurred on the evening of Febru-
ary 21, 1906. The destruction was almost complete, the
n< \\ Gymnasium being the only building which escaped the
names. Fortunately this building was large enough to be
rmed into class rooms, study hall, dormitories, and
refectory for the advanced students.
NEW BUILDINGS. Immediately after the destruction of
the College, the Hoard of Managers met and decided upon
a general plan for the disposition of the buildings requisite
to meet the needs of this constantly growing institution.
According to this plan the new College will consist of a
double row of separate buildings extending north and south
through the old campus, and closed at the south by a chapel
BOURBONNAIS, ILLINOIS.

facing north. Four of these buildings are now completed.
While the exterior and general appearance of the buildings
has not been neglected special pains have been taken to
make the interior as cheerful, comfortable and serviceable
as is consistent with the purposes of a college. The entire
college is built of stone. Fire-proof material has been
used, and to insure further the safety of the students, the
dormitories are on the second floor, and each building has
two wide, iron stairs. The most approved modern appli-
ances for heat, light and ventilation are used. The class
rooms, dormitories, study halls and corridors are spacious,
lightsome and cheerful. The living rooms, pleasantly situ-
ated, with east and west exposures are commodious, heated
by steam, lighted by electricity and supplied with hot and
cold water.
Marsile Alumni Haul, which the generous and ever
loyal alumni of St. Viateur's intended as the completion of
the original plan, is the beginning of the new plan. This
building, facing the east, is 160 feet long and 82 feet wide,
and four stories high. The first floor is Administration
Floor, the Dormitories occupy the second floor, and study
halls and class rooms, the third and fourth floors.
Roy Hai.Iv contains one hundred and ten private rooms
for the Professors, Seminarians and those students who
desire to rent rooms. This four-story building, situated
south of the Gymnasium, has a west frontage of 172 feet
and a depth of 50 feet.
Gymnasium. The fact that the only building which
escaped the fire was the new Gymnasium, made it possible
to have all the buildings up-to-date in every detail. The
erection and outfitting of this spacious building, which was
formally opened October 21, 1901, are due to the generous
assistance received from former students of the College.
Its cost is estimated at $46,000. The building presents
a pleasing appearance; it is a massive stone structure 153

ST. VIATBUR'S COLLEGE
by 97 feet. The interior is finished in enameled brick and
Georgia pine. Like the other College Buildings, it is lighted
by electricity and heated by steam. Its equipments leave
nothing to be desired in the way of facilities for military
exercises, handball, indoor baseball, billiards, pool, bowling
and other games that rob the winter months of their dreari-
ness and at the same time afford excellent opportunities for
healthful physical development. Attached to the Gym-
nasium are shower baths, closets, reading rooms, armory,
music room, barber shop and the confectionery store.
There is also a fully equipped stage, and an auditorium
with a seating capacity of 1,500.
The Heating Plant occupies a central position to the
rear of the Gymnasium. The Webster system of steam
heat is installed. In connection with this building is the
public water works, which makes the college system of
plumbing as complete as could be had in any modern city.
Science Hall is well equipped for a thorough course
in Physics and Chemistry. It contains four large rooms,
the Chemical Laboratory, the Physical Laboratory, the Lec-
ture- Room and the Private Laboratory.
Location. Bourbonnais Grove, 111., where the College
is situated, is fifty-four miles south of Chicago and three
miles north of Kankakee. It is easy of access via Kanka-
kee or Bradley, on the main lines of the Illinois Central and
the Big Four, the IJlooniington branch of the Illinois Cen-
tral, the Chicago, [ndiana and Southern, and the Kankakee
and Seneca railroads. Electric cars run from Kankakee,
through Bradley, to the College grounds every half hour.
Proximity to the great metropolis of the west, railroad
facilities, the rich and populous surrounding country were
not the only considerations that induced the Viatorians to
found a college at Bourbonnais. The health fulness of the
location and the natural beauty of the scenery make it an
ideal spot for a college.

MORAL TRAINING
The education which the College wishes to impart is
that which procures the harmonious development of the
entire man. It is of the completest kind, and embraces both
intellect and will, the head and heart, knowledge of duty
and virtuous habits. Hence, a course of religious instruc-
tion, graded according to the capacity of the students, runs
parallel with the course of secular studies.
The system of discipline enforced aims mainly at the
development of character. Hence the greatest care is taken
to instill into the minds of the students those lofty prin-
ciples of Christian morality which will make them feel at
all times that right conduct is essential to manhood. A
supervision, modeled after that which exists in every well
regulated family, is exercised in all the departments. The
Professors, whose lives are devoted exclusively to the edu-
cation of youth, live with the students and mingle with
them freely. The intimate relations which arise from this
friendly intercourse between student and teacher is a most
powerful factor both in developing good qualities and in
curbing unworthy tendencies in the young. While the gov-
ernment of the College is mild and parental, the laws of
good order, propriety and morality are strictly enforced.
The moral influence of instruction, persuasion and encour-
agement is primarily and mainly relied on, and is seldom
found ineffectual.
GENERAL REGULATIONS
Entrance. Candidates for entrance are required to
bring testimonials of character and class standing from the
school which they have last attended. They are classified
according to their previous attainments as made known by
these testimonials or, in lieu of them, by examination. No
one is debarred from matriculation on account of his re-
ligious opinions.
12
ST. VIATEUR'S COLLEGE
New students not presenting credits will be obliged to
qualify by examination.
Non-Catholic students are obliged to be present at the
ordinary exercises of public prayer and at the familiar
talks on those virtues which are the fairest and richest en-
dowments both of youth and of manhood.
If a student loses his time and infringes other regula-
tions of the College, he will be punished, and if necessary
expelled. The penalty of expulsion is incurred also for ir-
religious language or writings, the introduction of infidel
or immoral books, the use or introduction of intoxicating
liquors, and every species of gambling.
Any person wilfully damaging the property of the Col-
lege must make compensation for the same.
All letters and packages to and from the students shall
be subject to the inspection of the President, or his repre-
sentative. Books, periodicals, and newspapers are likewise
subject to supervision and approbation.
Leave of absence cannot be granted to students during
the term except in cases of urgent necessity. Deductions
will be made in the class records for absence from reci-
tations.
Telegrams and letters asking privileges for students
must be signed by parents or guardians, and must be ad-
dressed to the President of the College.
Visiting days are Sundays, Tuesdays and Thursdays.
Good accommodations for parents and friends are easily
obtained in the village.
The Students are assigned to departments according to
their age, and have separate class rooms, dormitories, etc.
Ybung men of \y and upward are assigned to the Senior,
14 to 17 to the Junior, and those between 10 and 14 to
the Minim department.
Kx a m f nations and Premiums. Promotion and pre-
miums depend upon daily records and periodical examina-

tions. Two written examinations are given in the matter
studied before Christmas. The semi-annual oral examina-
tion given at the end of the first term reviews the first half
year's work. The second semi-annual examination, im-
mediately before commencement, reviews the second half
of the year's work. In the meantime two written examina-
tions are given, one at the end of March and the other at
the beginning of May. Immediately after these examina-
tions the results are read to the student body before the
President and faculty. Parents are kept in touch with the
application, deportment and progress of the students by bul-
letins sent them after each examination. Gold medals and
also other prizes for excellence in the various branches are
awarded on Commencement day.
COURSES AND METHODS OF INSTRUCTION
The Theological Course comprises all those branches
necessary for candidates for the priesthood.
The Course in Letters comprises chiefly Ancient and
Modern Languages and their Literature, practical lessons
in Literary Criticism, Rhetoric, Composition, and Oratory.
The Scientific Course, embracing higher Mathemat-
ics and the Physical Sciences, prepares students for special
University courses in pharmacy, medicine, civil and me-
chanical engineering.
The Collegiate Course embraces all those studies
that are required for a liberal education. It prepares young
men for the study of law, medicine, theology, and other
University or Seminary courses.

the student for entrance into the High School.
14
ST. VIATEUR'S COLLEGE
The Commercial Course comprises all the branches
of a finished business education. Graduates in this course
are awarded diplomas which are attestations of their prac-
tical business ability.
Special Students. Provisions are made to supply
what is deficient in those students who lack some of the re-
quirements for unconditional entrance to any regular class.
In exceptional cases some students are allowed to omit or
discontinue a prescribed study. Such students are not
eligible for the Degree of Bachelor of Arts.
Methods of Instruction. In the earlier years of each
course the method of questions and answers is followed;
this method is combined with the lecture system in the more
advanced classes. The most approved text books are placed
in the hands of the students, and teachers avail themselves
of every advantage which the progress of pedagogical sci-
ence affords in order to further the rapid and solid ad-
vancement of their pupils.
DEGREES
The act of the Legislature under which St. Viateur's
College was incorporated empowers the Board of Managers
"to confer such academic degrees and honors as are con-
ferred by Colleges and Universities of the United States."
Ki-oi iKKMKXTS. The degree of Bachelor of Arts is

LIBRARY
The students' Library, which before the fire contained
about 20,000 volumes, will practically have to be started
over anew as only about 2,000 books were saved. We take
this occasion to appeal to our friends to help in founding
a library that will surpass the one destroyed. Special li-
braries may be donated to the different societies and be
named after the donor. So far we gratefully acknowledge
the receipt of several hundred volumes from the late Rev.
J. J. Callaghan, Butte, Montana; Rev. M. A. Dooling, of
Henry, Illinois, and Hon. W. J. Onahan, of Chicago. An
annual fee of one dollar is imposed on every student. This
revenue is used for the improvement of the library.

F. E. Munsch, C.S.V., A.B Assistant
VI A TORI AN
The Viatorian is a monthly publication in which the
thought of the advanced classes in various courses of study
find expression. It deals chiefly with historical, literary,
scientific and philosophical subjects, offering students an
incentive for greater efforts and more perfect work in the
various branches of study.
The Viatorian also chronicles the most important events
of student life at the College, the celebration of college
feasts, the doings of the various dramatic, musical, literary,
oratorical, athletic and military organizations of the insti-
tutions. These accounts, together with columns of personal
notes, are of interest to former students. The Viatorian
also records the monthly progress of students and publishes
the list of winners of distinctions at the regular readings
of the class, and conduct notes. Thus the monthly visits of
the College journal inform parents and guardians of the
.advancement of their children and wards.
3S
ST. VIATEUR'S COLLEGE
The College journal first appeared in 1882, and it has
ever been the ambition of the students to maintain the high
standard of excellence which has won them the encourage-
ment of a host of friends as well as the most complimentary
notices of other College journals.
